Good GAWD! The ICWA is on a role! Week one our ratings were great, but after our second straight week of Dangerously/Skywalker in the headline we drew an unprecedented 4.2! Now has the WWE Drawn beyond a 4.2? Yes. Has WCW? Yes. But on their second cable broadcast? NOPE! Dangerously and Skywalker are carting the torch and the people love it. Of course we can’t attribute the entire show to the headline�?James, Matt Hardy, Nikki Black, Jamal Atkins, Jimmy Stryker, Shantel Travis, Summer Stratus, Image Johnson, Matt Matlock, MJ Storm, SFM�?They’re all drawing big. Matt Hardy’s merchandise sales have nearly doubled since signing with the ICWA, Image Johnson’s more popular than Lita in her prime, and Jimmy Stryker’s been America’s favorite badass since Steve Austin retired. Although I think now’s a great time to point out that Nic Dangerously’s merchandise is starting to sell heavy and Christian Skywalker right now is out selling anybody on the show, which tells me that he’s cemented himself as the flagship hero of this company. Never the less, why am I holding you up with information you can get on most internet wrestling news sites�?Let’s get to the action pimpin!
The Cops credits conclude and the screen fades to black briefly before "Straight Out of Line" (already a minute-four into the song at the start of the first chorus) begins playing over the PA as the ICWA Dementa-reel plays
With that the cameras begin sweeping the Wachovia Center in Philadelphia Pennsylvania as we see the following box pop up in the higher right corner of the screen.
ICWA Demented LIVE San Antonio Texas |
Busch, "WELCOME TO ANOTHER JAM PACKED TWO HOURS OF INTERNATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP WRESTLING ALLIANCE’S DEMENTED!!! Two weeks of HUGE SUCCESS and FOLKS, We are NOT Puttin�?The Breaks on NOW! Because tonight, one on one�?
The headline match banner hits the Dementa-Tron as the crowd erupts.
Busch, "Former US Champion and the man who’s drawn with the unparalleled Nic Dangerously, "No Limits" Chrsitain Skywalker goes one on one with former ICWA Hardcore champion and Royal Rumble winner "The Future of the Franchise" Bobby Johnson!"
Marshal, "Get with the times Alberta! He’s not "The Future" anymore, he’s taken over which is why he told me this afternoon that he’s�?Well he’s got a new moniker and he’s callin�?himself the H.N.I.C!"
Busch, "What the Hell is an Ech Nic?"
Marshal, " He’s the "Head N**ga In Charge!"
Busch, "Can we say that?"
Marshal, "Apparently not if I just got bleeped out."
Busch, "Well regardless, that head fella in charge has to go against a man who’s a leader in his own right and he’s going to have his hands full tonight, I guarantee."
With that the cameras switch to ringside where we see Busch and Marshal at the commentary position.
Marshal, "Let me tell ya something about our head negro�?"
We suddenly see a few men dressed in black jeans and Yellow shirts that read
On the back. They surround the commentary table and one of them starts addressing Busch and Marshal although we can’t hear him.
Marshal slowly grows agitated as he says, "What the Hell do you mean we can’t call the action at ringside?! ……………�?I don’t give a crap if Jesus himself sent you down here, I’ll make his ass tap just the same as anybody else."
Security starts to close in as if they’re trying to be intimidating which makes Marshal slam his headphones down and jump up. We can just hear Marshal declare abruptly, "I’LL BITCH SLAP YOUR THOUGHT PROCESS BACK TO THE BIRTH CANNEL PAL!"
They’re about to throw down as we see Bert holding his earphones and nodding as he says, "You sure? …………�?Alright Mr. Johnson, you’re the boss."
Bert gets up keeping the headphones and puts a hand on Marshal’s shoulder.
Marshal, "WHAT?!"
Bert, "We’re supposed to stand down. They want us to relinquish the commentary table to W2K."
Marshal, "What?! F**k W2K!"
Marshal is clearly pissed off as he pushes the lead W2K security guard back and marches through the yellow shirts, pushing his way back and talking smack the whole time. Busch sets down his head set and follows behind, a bit more humbly although not much more gleefully then Marshal. They walk around the ring and start heading up the ramp as we see Hamid Ismali’s video start over the Dementa-Tron making the crowd both pop and boo as Hamid comes out without theme music. Hamid simply smirks as he walks down the ramp arrogantly yet in a determined fashion as well.
He gets to ringside and walks up the steal steps and into the ring via the second and third ropes.
Hamid enters the ring and is handed a microphone as "W2K" Security have left behind the ICWA Commentary team.
Hamid: "Philadelphia, like San Antonio... is W2K country!"
[ The W2K fans in attendance today are definately vocal... ]
Crowd: "DUB TWO KAY! DUB TWO KAY!]
Hamid: "Tonight, you are going to see a ICWA Presentation of a W2K Title match and I assure you that it will live up to the name of Wrestling... 2000.... because it's my company, my title and it's defended how I say so, where I say so, with whom I say so and I'm not going to have this called by ICWA commentators that know d**k all about W2K, and so I twisted arms until I got what I wanted and this match, this match will be called by.... JOE.... E..... KEWWWWWWL!"
[ Hamid raises on arm out and heads out of the ring as "Welcome to the Jungle" starts, and the W2K loyalists know this is the W2K universal theme by Guns N' Roses. Joey walks out, waving his hand as he steps up into the ring and is handed a mic. Hamid takes a spot in the commentator’s booth.
"Bodies Floating in Darkness" by Fear Factory explodes with thundering drums after the liquid like twangs, as out comes Kutter Flash, a beast of a man and obviously with his own mix of fans. Some boo, some, ICWA fans, don't know what to make of this opening match to Demented, but the Kutter fans still throw fists up in the air as the epic song gets to climax, and he slides into the ring and onto the ropes... perched like a vulture waiting to pick the meat....
It fades away and is replaced by the rumbling of "King Nothing" by Metallica... as some more fans get even more vocal... ]
Crowd: "N E D! N E D! N E D! N E D!"
[ Dangerously steps out on stage with Amber in tow. He's looking straight at the ring, and hits his stride as Amber keeps up. He walks up the steps, eyeing Kutter every second, and steps into the ring between the ropes. Joey lifts the mic. ]
Joey: "Tonight we have a one fall to finish match up for the vacated Wrestling 2000 Championship. Introducing the first challenger, from Hell if I know, people... the six foot six, three hundred pound steam roller, the man who eats raw meat, the man who had to trade in his Ford Festiva because he couldn't damned well fit in it... the man who ate his gym teacher... he is the killing machine... the thoughtless hardcore Ikon.... the man who can down the Devil himself... a former one time W2K Champion in his own right...this... is.... KUTTEEEEER FLAAAAAAAASH!"
[ Kutter raises his arms and arches his back like he's already got this won. His eyes are closed and even he can feel the emotion emanating from this match. For all the marbles. ]
Joey: "And his opponent and second challenger... from San Antonio Texas... the six foot two, two hundred and sixty pound Man Who Can, No Hype Needed... the former Seven Time W2K Champion... too damned good for his own damned good and damned if he stops now... the Paradigm.... the God of Wrestling.... I give you... NIIIIC! EEEEEEEE! DAAAAANGEEEROOOUUUUSLYYYY!"
[ The crowd erupts as NED spins and full realization hits him that he's still in W2K country- as San Antonio and Philadelphia were the two big cities they headquarted. when he turns around, Kutter has come at him full blast, and Joey tumbles himself out of the ring and to the announce booth with Hamid. Amber slides out and Kutter mashes a shoulder into NED's gut, and goes to lift, but NED tightens his arms around for a gut wrench but the heavier Kutter is amble to lift NED- NED swings his knee in and collides with Kutter's own gut, and then brings him chest first down to his knee when Kutter drops him... ]
Hamid: "You fool, you gave Dangeorusly a much better introduction."
Joey: "I thought they were fair and even."
Hamid: "You think what I pay you to think!"
[ Kutter pops up and NED goes to lariat, but Kutter falls back on an arm and lets NED's momentum carry him over, Kutter rolls and pounces and shoves NED face first into the corner, NED's head rolls and Kutter immediately grabs his arm and whips him in a hard release to the opposite corner- so hard Kutter lose shis footing and heads again full blast- jumping for an avalanche but NED shoots up a foot and flings Kutter back in a flop. ]
Joey: "This is a clash of two styles between two men. In a straight match, Dangerously has the advantage as his ground game can wear Kutter down, but that's only if Kutter can't beat Dangerously's body into jelly before that happens!"
Hamid: "I hand picked Kutter Flash to lead the new W2K... he will not fail."
Joey: "And if he does?"
Hamid: "He. Will. Not."
Joey: "Okay geez."
Hamid: "If he does, though. I have a plan B."
[ NED soars onto the second rope and down with a driving elbow that cuts Kutter right in the forehead. Kutter kicks his legs, but NED grabs his hair and pulls him up- Kutter grabs a front waist lock and swings NED like a rag doll... ]
Joey: "A simplistic bear hug made into a back twisting barrage!"
[ NED's head bobs back and forth violently, until his hands clap on Kutter's ears, and NED bends down and grabs Kutter's foot, and twists it in an ankle lock that in turn twists Kutter around and flops him face first onto the canvas... Kutter crawls, easily pulling NED to the ropes with him and grabs it. ]
Joey: Teddy Longfeather doing his job and breaking the hold. Dangerously seems to have a counter for everything!"
Hamid: "How will he counter a broken body Joey?"
[ Kutter takes his foot up for a kick but NED backtracks. Kutter whisks up and swings in a lariat that NED ducks, NED goes for a waistlock, but Kutter dips forward, flipping NED form the sheer speed and power ofit... NED's on his feet, but Kutter hugs his head for a bulldog and plants him down hard... He come sup and drops a leg, and another, and another, and NED pushes up to all fours, and Kutteer drops another heavy leg, rolls NED over and covers- ONE! TWO! NO!!! ]
Hamid: See, you fool? Kutter has the first pin attempt. The man who makes the first attempt ALWAYS wins. Fool. We can stop the match now because anything else is just delaying the inevitable."
[ NED powers up a shoulder, but Kutter swings around, spinning him onto his stomach, and powers him up into a gutwrench over his shoulder, and nails a shoulder breaker. NED bounces off Kutter's knee, and Kutter holds him in a hangman's piledriver postion, swinging him up for a powerbomb... NED fights with with some wild swings of the fist, but Kutter spins wildly, flailing NED's limbs, and sends him back first with an Awesome Bomb into the turnbuckle... NED slumps over, and Kutter sends a knee, and a second into NED's gut, and then goes for a shoulder block... it hits and NED spits from the force, and Kutter backs off and goes for a corner GORE.... but Amber slips NED a chair... and he holds it as Kutter runs... he lifts it to hit Kutter in the back, but the knees and shoulder blocks knocked air out of him and he's too slow to hit Kutter in the head- Kutter connects the GORE, but as NED stepped out, he nailed Kutter in the back, as both fall to the canvas, and roll from each other. ]
Joey: "Now, ICWA fans might be confused but W2K has no real disqualifications and no countouts when it's in the original form. Thus, the chair is legal."
[ NED's huffing air, and Kutter rolls to all fours, then puts his hand on his back. He pulls himself up and looks down at Amber, shaking his head. He turns to NED and nails a punt like kick to the ribs, and rips him up to his feet, and goes for a Fisherman's brainbuster... NED twists bid pick up and is able to fall on Kutter; but Kutter presses him off before Teddy can even get a one. Kutter rolls to a three point stance, and goes for NED, who gives him a drop toe hold and rolls it into a Half crab... Kutter instantly comes to life... ]
Joey: "Dangerously, always knowing exactly where he is!"
Hamid: "But Kutter isn't in there without a clue..."
[ Kutter reaches and reaches, but NED sinks back... he can't reach the ropes this time, but he does get his fingers around the leg of the chair... He pulls it close, and then NED sinks back, shaking his head wildly as Kutter tries and tries to roll to his back... little by little, until he gets his other leg to the other side, and NED's grip lessens, and Kutter brings the chair across NED's back... HARD.. and NED arches.. and Kutter gets to his feet and slams him again in the back and NED takes a step forward and turns- Kutter tosses him the chair and goes for the GORE, using the chair, and NED sees him as he comes off the ropes and tosses the chair, hitting Kutter in the head, it bounces off, NED catches it as the crowd goes "OOOOH!" Kutter spins and comes right back and NED crashes it down on his head.. Kutter spins again and comes back and NED hits him again- the crowd shutters and Kutter spins and comes back and this time digs his feet in and launches and hits his shoulder into the chair which in turn goes into NED for the XGORE.... ]
Joey: "THREE CHAIRSHOTS! And he still came!"
Hamid: "He's a tarnation machine, Joey. A damned machine!"
NED is laids out, and Kutter is on his stomach. The chair still lays on NED, as Kutter makes a hurry crawl on top of NED and gets an arm slung around- ONE! TWO! NO! ]
Joey: "Too much time! Dangerously got the shoulder up!"
[ The crowd is getting into it, as "DUB TWO KAY! DUB TWO KAY!" chants go up... as does Kutter, as he goes to pick up NED... NED brings his legs up in a scissors around Kutter's head, and is spun as Kutter tries in vain to get out and NED goes for the chair, but Kutter doesn't fight it and rips NED off his back and into the air, slamming him back down in a powerbomb that breaks the scissors... Kutter stumbles back some into the ropes and comes back and standing in the ring is none other than Amber Michaels.
Joey: " Oh no. She needs to get out of there before she's ran down by that beast Kutter."
Hamid: "It couldn't happen to a better wh*re!"
[ Kutter licks his lips and starts to stalk toward Amber. She backs into a corner and is scared for her life as she screams for NED to get up. Doesn't look likely, but the fans go nuts anyways.
Hamid: "What the hell is that infidel doing here? Shouldn't he be in Michigan?"
[ Indeed folks, Christian Michaels has made an appearance once again in ICWA. He charges down the aisle and leaps onto the apron. CM quickly ascends to the top rope and waits for Kutter to turn around. He does and Michaels leaps off looking for some move. What it is we'll never know as Kutter explodes into the air, catching CM with a massive GORE!!! The fans boo loudly as both men crash to the mat. However ole Hamid is happy as a pig in sh*t! Meanwhile Amber rushes over to NED and tries to rouse him back to life.
Hamid: "What is going on? Kutter should be up by now."
Joey: "You actually have a point there Hamid. I've never seen a GORE take this much out of Kutter. His opponents are usually the ones neraly dead, not Kutter too"
[ Finally we see signs of movement as CM rolls out from under Kutter. The fans are cheering like hell again as Michaels takes off his shirt and reveals that he was wearing a metal plate underneath. Many of the fans are somehow even more pumped as they remember when CM borrowed this tactic from Bret Hart back in 2001 when he himself had to face Kutter in a match. Hamid though is pissed. He actually leaves the announce position and climbs into the ring. Hamid giving CM a real piece of his mind until Michaels points behind him. Slowly Hamid turns around and he's blasted by Amber with a chair!
Joey: "Amber Michaels just dropped Hamid! She dropped him like a bad habit!"
[ The plans now seems to be put NED on top of Kutter for an 8th W2K title reign. But that big assed man beast Kutter is getting to his hands and knees. CM takes the chair from Amber. But he looks at Kutter then the chair and back to Kutter. Christian decides to drop the chair and takes off that metal plate he's wearing. he then slams it across Kutter's back a good five times before he's put back down. He turns around upon hearing Amber squeal, seeing Hamid shove her down. CM is ready to save the day for his big sis, but there's a big reaction behind him. CM whips back aorund expecting to see Kutter back up but its none other than the longest reigning W2K champion ever....Black Widow!!!
Joey: "What!? What the hell is Widow doing here?"
[ Widow tells CM that they should go and get Hamid. He falls for it and turns round to go after Hamid. Then he's whipped back around and takes a hard kick to the gut. Widow then hits her finisher the "Sweet Dreams" (X-Pac's facebuster)! Hamid smiles, but Widow doesn't. She walks past him to NED, taking Dangerously and tying him up in the ropes. She then just starts beating his forehead with hard right hand fists. Eventually Nic's skin splitting and blood pours out..
Joey: "Wait a minute! Widow has razorblades in between her fingers! Dammit! I know she has that vendetta against NED for what happened to her father but she needs to let it go!"
[ Hamid directs traffic until somehow Michaels, Christian that is, manages to get up and throw himself shoulder first into Widow. Hamid hops out of the ring as Widow is knocked down into a corner. CM starts working on getting NED free when hes grabbed by Kutter, snatched into the air, and tossed to the outside right over NED's head. Dangerously shows signs of life and raises a kick right between the legs of Mister Kutter Phuken Flash! He staggers away as NED manages to get the rest of the way free of the ropes. Widow comes at him but her clothesline is ducked and NED gives her a Deus Ex Machina right over the top rope!
Joey: "Its looking good for Dangerously now! He's got a new wind and...HOLY CRAP!!!!"
[ NED turned back around and was GORED so hard by Kutter that he was turned a complete flip and landed face down! Kutter is snarling as he rolls Dangerously onto his back and goes down for the pin. One........Two...........Three!!! The fans booing like hell as Kutter's theme replays over the sound system.
Joey: "Dammit if it hadn't been for Widow, who has a vendetta against NED for the death of her father, he may have saw his eighth reign as W2K champion begin tonight. But instead we get to see Hamid and that damned beast Kutter gloat over Nic! This.....this just makes me sick!"
[ Hamid coming back into the ring and presenting the title to Kutter as he stands over NED
*Commercial Break*
